DNS::LD...SSecZone(3)

✨ NAME ✨

okay so bestie, meet DNS::LDNS::DNSSecZone 💖 it's the module page for a Zone with dnssec data — that's literally the whole vibe, that's what she is. it's in the DNS::LDNS family (perl, obvs), and it's giving "zone file but make it cryptographically signed". no cap. 🎀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's the whole tea, verbatim, do NOT come for me about the syntax, this is exactly what the page says:

use DNS::LDNS ':all'

my z = new DNS::LDNS::DNSSecZone(
  filename => '/path/to/myzone',
  origin => new DNS::LDNS::RData(LDNS_RDF_TYPE_DNAME, 'myzone'), #optional
  ttl => 3600, #optional
  class => LDNS_RR_CLASS_, #optional
)
my z = new DNS::LDNS::DNSSecZone(
  file => \*FILE,
  origin => ..., ttl => ..., class => ...
)
my z = new DNS::LDNS::DNSSecZone

rr = z->soa
rbtree = z->names
rrsets = z->find_rrset
z->add_rr(rr)
z->create_from_zone(zone)
z->add_empty_nonterminals

z->sign(keylist, policy)
z->sign_nsec3(keylist, policy, algorithm, flags, iterations, salt)

z->create_nsecs
z->create_nsec3s(algorithm, flags, iterations, salt)
z->create_rrsigs(key_list, policy, flags)

so yeah — you can spin her up from a filename, from a file filehandle, or from absolutely nothing at all (main character energy 💅). origin, ttl and class are all optional lil extras you can pass along. then you've got your getters (soa, names, find_rrset), your adders (add_rr, create_from_zone, add_empty_nonterminals), your signing glow-ups (sign, sign_nsec3), and the NSEC/RRSIG factories (create_nsecs, create_nsec3s, create_rrsigs). it's a whole buffet. 🍓

💀 TODO 💀

not me... there is still stuff left to do here 🙈

• z->to_string — yeah that one's on the to-do list, it's not done yet, don't @ me

and that's the whole page, bestie 💖 no filler, no skipped bits, every single crumb is here. this one's from perl v5.42.2, dated 2026-06-11, and it's filed under the manual name DNS::LD...SSecZone(3) — yes the title is abbreviated with the lil dots, that's not a typo, that's just how she's filed. slay. 🎀✨🫶
